"Vision is often regarded as first among the human senses, as our eyes are the
way most of us come to know the world. However, vision has its limits.
Even now, as you use your eyes to read this, other senses are in operation that
open up a greater appreciation of the world. Perhaps the most powerful of these
is listening - audition.
Sound carries cues about the world we might otherwise miss. And with the
development of new technologies and the work of dedicated scientists and
artists, we can today listen to what was previously unimaginable, from the
inner workings of plants to catastrophes in distant galaxies.
In my own work, currently exhibited at the Museum of Brisbane, I have made
field recordings of environments and creatures around the world. These works
take their place alongside an ever-growing collection of recordings revealing
the unheard sounds of our world."
